I would do red. but good job. did you take off the calipers individually?

Not true! I've put about 2k miles on my car with the painted calipers and they don't get any dirtier then the rest of the car. When I wash the car I just wipe them down and they are good to go. Then again, the three coats of clear coat probably help with that.
